24hrs later and my quad is getting sore in the injection area. is this normal? how long does it last? tips on preventing it?
 
Normal, prolly be even worse soon. Take 600mg of ibuprofen or whatever anti inflammatory drugs u have over there.
 
As first timer you should have done the (ass) next time try there and clean the injection site heat the gear a little and use a 1 1/2 needle and push that sucker all the way in
 
ok i cleaned with alcohol wipes and used a 23g one inch needle and injected very slowly. followed steps on video on this site to a t.
 
It will go away eventually. Man up and get over it. You are injecting fluid into your muscle. If it didn't feel like mild swelling, then I would worry.
 
injected test 250e aw. being i'm new to this i'm just trying to figure out what is normal. it felt like nothing going in now it is getting sore kinda like i did a shit load of squats. not to bad just stiff and a little tight/sore.
 
Like it has been said, it will get worse before it gets better. In 4-5 weeks when the test kicks in the pain will be worth it.....trust me.:winkfinger:
 
You're going to experience this sort of soreness, stiffness, and even pain (to a relatively mild extent) for the first few weeks of injecting. Just when you're becoming accustomed to it, you'll realize that you don't even feel it anymore!

Once you build up some scar tissue and the needle goes in like it's pushing through crumpled up bubble wrap... then you're good to go.. LOL
 
Yeah stick to gluts
 
i was going to pin 1ml test e 250 every 5 days now im thinking of doing 1/2ml twice a week to let my body get used to it and keep pain down. how does this sound?
 
Sometimes depends on what's in the solution too. I've done a fair few quad jabs with test C and E with no PIP however on this cycle of test P and Tren A the pain is almost unbearable however it's fine in the glutes!
 
OP see ezshanken's thread on injection sites in the aw forum. Use the glute. Starting off with 1/2cc is fine for your first cycle. In fact, that's where I would tell you to start. Your body is gonna freak with exogenous hormone anyways, so lowering the dose will be just as effective. You can up it later in the cycle. Also if you have to shoot quad, do it after a leg workout. Much less noticeable on the pain side.

Is this for TRT or a cycle? 250mg a week is nothing bro, not even worth shutting yourself down for....

As for your question, it happens at first but gets better. Everytime you put it into a new muscle it'll hurt the first half dozen times or so. It's not bad though usually, heat your gear a little, massage the area afterwards, pin right before working that muscle etc. there are ways to reduce it. It has more to do with the hormone concentration and levels of benzyl alcohol than anything. I went from pinning 1ml test E at a time first cycle to pinning 3ml at a time because I was using low concentration deca (100mg/ml) and the pain was less if anything. Test E wasn't bad for me even from the beginning, I may have just gotten lucky with my first choice of gear :P

Also I don't have any issues pinning quads but some don't like em. Theyre easy to reach and painless for me now so I use them alot. Definitely getting some scar tissue already though...
 
yes my test is low 380/207/447 last three blood draws over last year. so im going 6 weeks then draw blood to establish a cruise dose then i will start blasting some. thinking of but cheek next time but only have 1" needles is that long enough?
 
btw i'm new to all this not trying to be puss just trying to figure out everything and what is normal. thanks to all the vets for your help
 
Its normal. It shouldn't be extremely painful but you have to remember you are putting a foreign substance directly into a large muscle. Your body isn't going to like it the first few times. I put 2 ml in my quad last night and it feels fine. Gear effects everyone differently most of the time. As long as the gear is good, and it looks like you said it was AW so it should be just fine, the pain will get easier to deal with over time. Try a hot shower or a heating pad over the site after the pin to help disperse the oil more. The more you get used to pinning the easier it will get. I remember I was shaky as hell first time I stuck myself :roflmao:. Now, its business as usual.
 
I know a lot of guys have had good luck with heat on the injection site, but I'm the opposite. If I know I'm gonna have some pain from a shot, I'll start ice about 30 minutes after pinning. Heat really inflames my muscles and since you just caused trauma to the site, ice is the key to reduce inflammation. Then after about 12 hours I'll switch between ice and heat to flush the area real good.
 
mine didnt hurt till 24hrs later. pinned glute last night 1/2ml no pain so far. think im going to go 1/2 ml twice a week for now
 
Quads hurt like a bitch for me even with 1 mL. Glutes are slightly less painful, but delts are my favorite site. I can get 2 mL's in those bad boys with little to no p.i.p.

you should be fine bro... but quad injections almost always are very tender afterward.. shoot it in glute til you are used to it... it gets less and less each time..

I don't even fuck with little needles and shooting slow any more... use a 20g 1 1/2", bury that sucker in glute or shoulder, aspirate and push it in... no biggy
